XOOPS and SQL Connection

I have one question about XOOPS and SQL connection.

If I have 2 websites (and I need to have 2nd website as main website mirror), I simply enter SQL host, user and password from 1st website to 2nd website and it takes all the data from 1st website, right?

Now the main question: If I make any changes on 2nd website, these changes will be applied to 1st website too, right? Because both websites use the same database...

Thanks Mithrandir,

Your answers are clean and useful as always.

And I think there is no way to make this:

2nd website uses its local database, but uses data for one table (yes, not for all tables!) from external SQL database?

You are - to my knowledge - correct.

This, however, is possible:
both websites use the same database, with different table prefixes. 2nd website uses the prefix of 1st website for one or more tables.

Great!

How can I make it work in real life? website2 must use table "xoops_wfdownloads_downloads" from website1 and all other tables should be used from local database.

What do I need to change?
